I was wondering about the problem of ties across line breaks in connection with accidentals. Would it be a reasonable approach to use the heuristic "a line break counts as an additional bar"? That would seem to create useful behavior for mid-bar line breaks (namely get fresh accidentals and possibly reminders on the next line) and it would work with regard to tied accidental notes coinciding with a bar (don't repeat an accidental while in-line, but do so if it is broken across lines). Though what about line broken ties of accidental notes in mid-bar? Do they get an accidental repeat? What do the usual references recommend? -- David Kastrup
